Android FAQ: Future Weather / In-App Subscription

Modified on: Thu, 28 Sep, 2017 at 2:47 PM

What is Future Weather?

Future Weather is an optional monthly 99¢ in-app subscription providing additional radar data up to 6-12 hours in advance. NOAA Severe Weather alerts (yellow or red polygons), hurricanes and more can still be tracked without a subscription.

Why do I have to pay a subscription? Shouldn't it be included for free?

A subscription is not required to use the app or track severe weather. Future Weather is great for those who wish to see forecasted radar on the timeline. This is new data and this was not available in our previous app. Charging for this feature allows us to keep the app updated, accurate, and ad-free. We will continue to improve on Future Weather and more improvements across the entire app.
